* Added RNA for operators. This still uses ID properties internally,
but through the RNA API now. The OP_get/set_* API that was used is
replaced by the RNA API. Currently RNA properties for operators are
defined at runtime since it means operator registration can be done
in a single function.
* Changed the existing operators to use this system, I haven't defined
user interface names yet though. I also think there need to be some
conventions on which properties to expose to make these operators
usable in macros, for example if mouse coordinates should be stored
or not.
* When using ID properties through defined RNA properties, it now
checks that the ID property actually matches the RNA property and
removes/overwrites it otherwise. This ensures that you can safely
get/set arrays for example without having to worry that some
external thing may have changed the length.
* Documentation now has some information on RNA + ID properties.

Issues:
* GHOST/X11 had conflicting changes. Some code was added in 2.5, which was
later added in trunk also, but reverted partially, specifically revision
16683. I have left out this reversion in the 2.5 branch since I think it is
needed there.

* Scons had various conflicting changes, I decided to go with trunk version
for everything except priorities and some library renaming.
* In creator.c, there were various fixes and fixes for fixes related to the -w
-W and -p options. In 2.5 -w and -W is not coded yet, and -p is done
differently. Since this is changed so much, and I don't think those fixes
would be needed in 2.5, I've left them out.
* Also in creator.c: there was code for a python bugfix where the screen was not
initialized when running with -P. The code that initializes the screen there
I had to disable, that can't work in 2.5 anymore but left it commented as a
reminder.
Further I had to disable some new function calls. using src/ and python/, as
was done already in this branch, disabled function calls:
* bpath.c: error reporting
* BME_conversions.c: editmesh conversion functions.
* SHD_dynamic: disabled almost completely, there is no python/.
* KX_PythonInit.cpp and Ketsji/ build files: Mathutils is not there, disabled.
* text.c: clipboard copy call.
* object.c: OB_SUPPORT_MATERIAL.
* DerivedMesh.c and subsurf_ccg, stipple_quarttone.
Still to be done:
* Go over files and functions that were moved to a different location but could
still use changes that were done in trunk.
==========
* Changed wmOperatorType, removing init/exit callbacks and adding cancel
callback, removed default storage in favor of properties. Defined return
values for exec/invoke/modal/cancel.
* Don't allocate operator on the stack, and removed operator copy for
handlers. Now it frees based on return values from callbacks, and just
keeps a wmOperator on the heap. Also it now registers after the operator
is fully finished, to get the correct final properties.
* Changed OP_get_* functions to return 1 if the property is found and 0
otherwise, gives more readable code in my opinion. Added OP_verify_*
functions to quickly check if the property is available and set if it's
not, that's common for exec/invoke.
* Removed WM_operatortypelist_append in favor of WM_operatortype_append
which takes a function pointer instead of a list, avoids macro's and
duplicating code.
* Fix a crash where the handler would still be used while it was freed by
the operator.
* Spacetypes now have operatortypes() and keymap() callbacks to abstract
them a bit more.
* Renamed C->curarea to C->area for consistency. Removed View3D/View2D/
SpaceIpo from bContext, seems bad to keep these.
* Set context variables like window/screen/area/region to NULL again when
leaving that context, instead of leaving the pointers there.
* Added if(G.f & G_DEBUG) for many of the prints, makes output a bit
cleaner and easier to debug.
* Fixed priority of the editors/interface module in scons, would otherwise
give link errors.
* Added start of generic view2d api.
* Added space_time with some basic drawing and a single operator to change
the frame.
